- The only thing that pushed me enough to make this post was the recent GoodReads atrocious site redesign. Nothing says how unhinged your life has become quite like realizing that you don’t have anyone to rage with because you’ve effectively dropped out of everyone else’s life.
- I’m not better yet. I’m trying to be better.
- I should’ve spent the past three months being proactive about creative projects the way I couldn’t when I still had a job. The only productive thing I’ve done recently is go to Aklan to attend my grandfather’s funeral.
- Somehow I’ve found myself getting back into reading fic again, after years of dissatisfaction. I could say I never knew I could read so many words about sporty soft bros, but I’ve been in the football fandom.
- I’ve been playing a lot of Crusader Kings 2 and Stellaris, and listening to podcasts and audiobooks as I play. They’re fucking great games for people who like roleplaying as the benighted kings of Navarre and science directorate space cats, respectively.
- My current big thing is listening to 57-hour long audiobook of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer. Because perspective.
- Logging onto Tumblr and feeling angry at its layout gave me such a wave of nostalgia.
